1 Fast & Good A new UV-curable dispersion for new challenges Axel Becker, Dr. Susanne Neumann, Dr. Delphine Kimpel 1

2 Outline UV-curable dispersions: combining the best of two technologies Challenge: grain enhancement combined w/ fast drying New PUD Applications Technical properties Summary

3 UV-curable dispersions Why? L Conventional UV coatings Migration, odor & emission of monomers Labeling, safety issues Adhesion problem due to shrinkage Correlation M w h L Conventional WB coatings Poor scratch resistance & blocking Limited gloss Limited chemical resistance Need of film forming additives (VOC) No monomers or co-solvents J UV WB coatings J Good chemical resistance Less polymer shrinkage better adhesion No blocking after curing Low high M w Better matting properties Good mechanical properties

4 UV-cured WB coatings Advantages Low h w/o monomers or solvents Spray & curtain application Easy h control Reduced flammability Reduced skin irritation Disadvantages Flash-off step prior to UV-curing Longer cure time Higher energy consumption High surface tension of water Wetting agents needed Shrinkage due to water loss Thin film applicable Excellent adhesion on difficult substrates Easy clean-up of equipment

5 Fast drying needed line speed (i.e. fast drying before UV) + quality one product fullfills both requirements possible?
